Poll #2: New ARES voice

Post by Rahlzel » 29 Apr 2017, 00:30

A continuation from this post: viewtopic.php?f=89&t=12466

I gathered the top voice variations that seemed to be the most liked and added more voice clips for each.

Normal
Minimal effects.

Motherly
About as close to MOTHER in the Alien film as I could get, including the long echo as it bounced through the ship.

Vibration+Deep
A top suggestion in the topic's replies, which is a distortion plus a lower pitch.

Borg
This might sound cool, but I'm not sure it fits the lore, and it can be difficult to understand. Maybe I'm not thrilled with this because I don't want to steal Star Trek's Borg voice, which is a very iconic sound. It also sounds a bit like the Icarus AI from Deus Ex. Regardless, I'll go ahead and include it since it was the most popular choice.

Yeah, still loving the DV choice.

Normal is kinda bland, even with Rahl's voice.
Mother is a little to light for me.
Borg is pretty iconic and the distortion, while cool, could get complicated with some phrases we might use.

I really am feeling the deep vibrator, it's by far my favorite. Borg sounds kinda neat but doesn't fit our setting or the ship or well, anything. If you want the borg voice to be a "corrupted" ai voice for maybe if it goes all fucky for one reason or another that might be neat.

Anyways, points for deep vibrations.

Honestly, I enjoyed the regular vibrator more than the deep one. It sounded more grating and metallic, which I liked.
